Over the past several months pallet delivery and logistics specialist National Pallets have been in talks with Danny Webb of the Appleyard Racing team, resulting in sponsorship of the young rider who has previously ridden for Red Bull MotoGP, Mahindra and Ambrogio.
Danny is best known for being the last ever Stroke Pole Position holder in the Moto GP World Championships, as well as achieving three bronze and one silver replica at last year’s Isle of Man TT competition.
In his upcoming season he will be participating in a number of races including the British Supersport Championships where he will ride the Yamaha R6 600 CC and Isle of Man TT competition, where he will be entered in the lightweight class riding a Kawasaki 650 CC.
As fans all over the UK prepare for the 2015 motorcycle season Danny Webb and the rest of his teamare in the midst of a vigorous training program and diet to prepare themselves for the competitions.
The British Supersport Championships have been taking place on an annual basis since 1989. This year’s BSS event will be the championship’s 25th yearly event. The BBS is often considered a stepping stone for young riders before the British Superbike Championships, the biggest biking competition in the UK.The BBS has previously seen riders such as Tom Sykes, Cal Crutchlow and Leon Camier compete, all of whom have gone on to compete in the British Superbike Championships later in their career.
The competition will take place over one weekend, with Friday being reserved for practice runs and the qualifying taking place on Saturday, before the actual races on the Sunday. Five teams will take part in the event: Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Triumph and Yamaha. Tickets for the event can be purchased here, and fans can view an exclusive interview with Danny Webb here.
As stated by National Pallets business owner Susan Brooks – ‘We are thrilled to be sponsoring Danny throughout such a big competition and during such an exciting season. As a company that gets involved in transporting a lot of car and motorbike parts, it is an exciting turn of events to be involved in the competition side as opposed to the shipping side. We wish Danny all the best in his upcoming competitions, especially the British Supersport Championships which we will look forward to watching.’
National Pallets offer palletised shipping across the whole of the UK as well as 14 other European countries including Poland, France and Slovakia.
